Whittington
Stillwater senior middle blocker Maddie Whittington was named Minnesota Ms. Baden Volleyball at the volleyball state tournament banquet Wednesday in St. Paul.
The 6-3 Whittington finished her high school career with more than 1,000 kills and more than 400 blocks, numbers made more impressive because she missed her entire sophomore season because of a knee injury. Whittington has committed to play at the University of Illinois.
The award is made by the Minnesota Volleyball Coaches Association to a senior based on career achievements and accomplishments. Other finalists were Olivia Tjernagel of Mayer Lutheran, Cianna Selbitschka of North Branch, Skyler Germann of Minnetonka and Elizabeth Helmich of Wayzata.
The association's list of all-state teams and honorable mentions for all classes are listed below.
